Abstract excerpt
The present study characterized conserved residues in a GST (glutathione transferase) in the active-site region that interacts with glutathione. This region of the active site is near the glycine moiety of glutathione and consists of a hydrogen bond network. In the GSTD (Delta class GST) studied, adGSTD4-4, the network consisted of His(38), Met(39), Asn(47), Gln(49), His(50) and Cys(51). In addition to...
